International programmes

Our department is driven by collaborating in international networks. Learning from each other, improving research methods and promoting a strong relationship with the EU are key. Funding from Europe is not essential for transnational cooperation. Influencing EU policies, cross-border projects and knowledge exchange are also important issues.

Era-net Transport (ENT) has evolved since 2004 into a service platform for programme owners and managers. It provides the required framework for initiating and implementing transnational research as well as collaborations for funding innovations.
